My dear boys and girls, good morning. Today I’m going to talk to you, about my understanding of learning history.

Many of you may think it is a terrible thing to study history. You may often wonder why we students should study something that has nothing to do with our own lives. If you think that way, I should say you are far from the truth.

In fact, if we study history, we can learn quite a lot about personal stories and events of people just like us. The people who came before us helped build and develop the country we are living in. Their ideas often solved many of our problems and troubles. Studying the past helps us to understand what our ancestors'( 祖 先 )lives were like. And it also helps us to see how their experiences have shaped our own life.

To be honest,  ▲   . Some of what we study in history helps us understand the mistakes of  the past. And these mistakes will help people not to do the same wrong things. People often learn from the past to have a better future.

Whether we like the subject of history or not, we must understand the importance of the events and the people who came before us. Our ancestors’ decisions have influenced our own life. Similarly, the decisions of our own generation will finally influence those who come after us. In this only way, the world is truly connected.

History is not just a study of the past. History is the study of people, places, and events that can influence the future.

Now do you still think studying history is a sad thing? Or do you have any doubt about learning history? If you have any questions, just feel free to ask.

27. If we study history, we can learn  that            .

1. history has nothing to do with our own lives

2. our ancestors helped build and develop our country

3. our ancestors’ ideas solved all our problems and troubles

4. our ancestors’ experiences can’t shape our own life

28. Which of the following can be put in the    ▲     in Paragraph 4?

A．the mistakes of the past won’t help us

B．I don’t like the idea of learning history C．it is not easy to learn the subject of history

D．not everything that happened in the past is good 29．The writer wrote the passage to     .

A．introduce some important people in history B．develop students’ interest in learning history

3. explain different people’s understanding of history
4. show the relationship between the past and the future

As computers become more popular in China, Chinese people are

increasingly relying on computer keyboards to input Chinese characters. But if they use the computer too much, they may end up forgetting the exact strokes (笔画)of each Chinese character when writing on paper. Experts suggest people, especially students, write by hand more.

Do you write by hand more or type more? In Beijing, students start using a computer as early as primary school. And computer dependence is more wide-spread among university students. Almost all their assignments and essays are typed on a computer.

All the students interviewed say they usually use a computer. It’s faster and easier to correct if using a computer. And that’s why computers are being applied more and more often to modem education.

“When I’m writing with a pen, I find I often can’t remember how to write a character, though I feel I’m familiar with it.”

“I’m not in the mood( 情 绪 ， 心 情 ) to write when faced with a pen and paper.” Many students don’t feel this is something to worry about. Now that it’s more convenient and efficient to write on a computer, why bother to handwrite?

Many educators think differently. Shi Liwei, the headmaster of a famous primary school in the capital, said, “Chinese characters enjoy both practical and aesthetic value. But those  characters typed with computer keyboards only maintain their practical value. All the artistic beauty of the characters is lost. And handwriting contains the writer’s emotion. Through one’s handwriting, people can get to know one’s thinking and personality. Beautiful writing will give people a better first impression of them.”

To encourage students to handwrite more, many primary schools in Beijing have made writing classes compulsory and in universities, some professors are asking students to turn in their homework and essays written by hand.

30. The students interviewed prefer to write using a computer mainly because          .
    1. they are usually asked to e-mail their homework and essays
    2. they find it not easy to remember how to write a character

3.    they can correct the mistakes they make quickly and conveniently D．computers have become a trend （趋势）and fashion in China

31. The word “aesthetic” in Paragraph 6 probably means“          ”.

A. artistic B. useful C. ugly D. displeasing

32. From the passage we can infer that          .
    1. more and more students will give up writing on a computer
    2. writing by hand will give way to typing by computer one day
    3. the typing article better expresses one’s feelings and quality
    4.    more and more students will pay attention to handwriting 33．Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?

1. To Type or to Handwrite
2. The Value of Chinese Characters
3. Writing by Computer will Replace Writing by Hand
4. The Importance of Handwriting and Typing

阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。

Have you ever heard of netball? It is a team sport which is similar to both basketball and handball.

Netball was first played in England in 1895 at Madame Ostenburg’s College. In the first half of the 20th century, Netball’s popularity continued to grow, with the game being played in many countries, it is particularly popular in Australia and New Zealand. In 1995 Netball became a “recognized” sport of the International Olympic Committee (IOC) and one of the International Netball Federation’s goals is to encourage the IOC to include netball in the Olympic Games Programme in the future.

There are seven players on each team and they each wear a bib ( 号 码 布 ) which shows the name of the position they play. Players must throw the ball to one another and the aim of the game is to pass the ball to the “Goal Shooter” or “Goal Attack” who can shoot the ball into the net to score a goal. However, the key rules of netball are that you cannot bounce(拍) the ball and you

cannot move your feet when you have the ball. This is called the footwork rule and it can be quite difficult to grasp (掌握) for young children playing the game! A full match lasts for one hour and in a single match often about 100 goals are scored which shows what a fast-paced and exciting game netball is!

Netball is typically played by women and girls. However, at many universities, there are mixed netball leagues (联赛) in which teams must have both male and female players.

In the UK, there are many different ways to try to attract women to play netball. One such plan is called “Back to Netball” which encourages women who have not played netball since they were at school to rediscover their love for the sport and get back on the court! Walking Netball is another variation (变化形式) of the sport aimed at older women and those who want to exercise in a gentler way. So, why not watch a video of netball online and then have a go for yourself?

34．What is netball similar to? 35．When was netball first played?

36．How long does a full netball match last? 37．What is Walking Netball?

38. What is Paragraph 3 mainly talking about?
